You came to me in another dream last night my dear niece You brought me some advice and reassurance telling me that you were at peace When i awoke the apartment was in the loudest bout of silence i had ever encountered Tears ran down my face as i was lamenting your devastating loss being happy and sad at the same time dreams like this should come with a cautionary note My mind was scrambled, and my thoughts were mangled i couldn't think straight I was afraid that it was a fiction of my imagination but deep inside it truly was you Trying to force myself back to sleep for this dream i wanted to keep If this dream came with side effects for life i would forever endeavour if i only got to see you again I believe at one point in the future you will be in a bright light beckoning me to follow you We will be reunited in the afterlife and to me all its wonders you will show Until that day i will have to lament away and have photo's of you in happier times to family i will show

I have a mental health illness and I was a inpatient in a private secure mental health hospital not because i was a danger to the public but because i myself was the only person who was in danger from me was myself and that will reflect in my poetry...
